Moved utility functions for multi-npu platforms from sonic-utilities …

…to sonic_device_util.py (#4559)

* Moved utility functions for multi-npu platforms from
sonic-utilities config/main.py to here so that they can be used
any module

* Fix the issue with test run during compilation with acl-uploader
PR#908 of sonic-utilities.

* Fix get_num_npu as it was retuning string and not int

* Address Review Comments
